Where Shadows Meet (Previously Pub. as Anathema)

Title:Where Shadows
Meet (Previously Pub. as Anathema)

Author: Collen Coble

Pages: 336

Year: 2018

Publisher: Thomas Nelson

My rating: 5 out of 5
stars

Personally, I like the new title compared with the older
one; yet, both have a central place in the book!I love reading Colleen’s books because of the
tension, climax, suspense and entertainment she threads in her tales.In this tale, we read about a meeting of two
worlds, the Amish and English in the heart of one young woman named Hannah who
views freedom to be in the English world after she tragically loses both
parents.Hannah makes a rash decision
that sets her life on a course that brings pain, heartache, and questions to her
heart for years.

When she fled her husband’s abuse and started a new life
with a new name, she hoped to be free from him.Yet, in her heart of hearts, she knew he would always be looking for her
and one day somehow, he would locate her and force her to return to him.When Hannah’s Aunt Nora sends a picture to her
with a letter from her husband Reese, who she is separated from, its contents
cause her heart to go in her throat and life once again is about to go into a
whirlwind.

I was very engrossed in this book for hours and highly
recommend this to those who love to read a good story with such suspense they cannot
put the book down!Coming later this
year, Colleen Coble is releasing a book titled, Freedom’s Light, and I can’t wait to read it.But until I am able, I will read other books
I have yet to read by this author and others who know how to keep a reader turning
pages long into the late-night hours!

Why we do what we do

When this blog began it was during a time of raising my sons and care taking for ailing inlaws. Before those seasons ended this blog morphed into writing reviews and interviewing authors. With the constant change in the Christian publishing industry and our society, our purpose expanded.

With my girlfriend coming alongside, we review all sorts of novels, hunting for sound stories. While there are a couple genres we will not review for several reasons, we remain open to looking into new opportunities to read and share about good books!

In all of what we do we aim to bring glory to God and Christ Jesus in the ministry of blogging which we believe He has blessed us to do. We are always amazed that we get to wake up and do something with such profound joy each and everyday.
